(intro/chorus)
we were country boys in the city,
making noise and looking pretty,
now I'm sitting here in my hometown, tired and dirty,
singing loud to the night, I want your dirty
hands to hold me tight, and take me on,
and take me on
(verse)
not the golden child
not the man on trial
we were only boys
running wild...running
(chorus)
we were country boys in the city,
making noise and looking pretty,
now I'm sitting here in my hometown, tired and dirty,
singing loud to the night, I want your dirty
hands to hold me tight, and take me on,
and take me on
(verse)
things cry out in the night
looking for love or looking for a fight
i hear your voice and i wanna love...
love you right...love you
love you right...love you
(chorus)
we were country boys in the city,
making noise and looking pretty,
now I'm sitting here in my hometown, tired and dirty,
singing loud to the night, I want your dirty
hands to hold me tight, and take me on,
and take me on
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh
oh oh oh oh
(we were) country boys, in the city
making noise, looking pretty
singing loud to the night
take me on
Like Magic

Chords: (Capo 5th fret)
hey there fox, light a cigarette for me
scratch it out, strike it up
i’m a lady, don’t you know
i’m a lady of the night
gonna light it up for me
gonna go rock n roll on me
gonna taste all i want for free
for free for free
sayin who---
who me?
who me?
devil’s daughter, it’s a fine debate
we could dance all night, we could stay up late
don’t you want me to want you back
don’t you want me to teach you how
gonna teach you to scream and shout
gonna get all your demons out
give the people something to dream about
they’re sayin, sayin, wanna know
who---
are you?
are you?
clock strikes it’s a helter skelter
gonna search for some evening shelter
to crush crush your bones to marrow
break you open
break you
down
so, lady luck don’t you look no more
i’m waiting here beside an open door
there’s somone comin and they’re lookin fine
gonna turn my water to wine
gonna light it up for you
gonna light it up for you
gonna go all honey on you
just to see what it makes you do ----
and it’s like
magic, magic
light it up
